it be given to some family afflicted

Again we call the attention Of our
readers to the fact that it is highly
necessary for them to read III adj
vertisements. Every live and sue
cessful merchant when he has a
bargain to offer, does so through the
columns of his home paper, and it
is to your interest, financially, to
give each ad. a careful study when
in need of anything. The home
paper is a medium through which
the successful merchant reaches his
| customers. To these advertisers is
due a large share Of the succe OF
our home papers, and whenever you
find a liberal advertiser you will in
variably find a liberal merchant.
Therefore we deem it but just to
call the attention Of our readers to
the fact that bargains may be ex'
pected where merchants take the
pains to tell the people, through
their home papers, the advantages
that he is offering IN his line Of trade

ment as a means of getting people
to take an interest in their fair.
Every merchant in the village offers
some articles in which he deals as a
premium to the person exhibiting
the best farm products, live stock,
fruits, household articles, etc. These
premiums are given in addition to
those offered by the Agricultural
Society, and are valued at from So
to S25, consisting of dry goods, boots
and shoes, agricultural implements,
groceries, harness, saddles, horse
blankets, furniture, clothing, toilet
sets, watches, clocks, etc. Why

inducement to people to attend and
help make our coming county fair
more interesting?

Education of the Masses.

No individual escapes all education.
Instruction furnishes the mind with
knowledge. Few men of the millions
have exceptional opportunities for &C
curing knowledge Few men are able
to- enjoy the social advantages that re-
suit in outer polish and good-breeding.
All men, in greater or less degree,
form characters-thati is, discipline the
mind in whatever way they use it, es-
tablish principles or the lack, of them.
and regulate the heart or suffer the
passions to ran riot. Education means
drawing forth what is in man. Life
continually develops new traits, con-
tinually draws out the many sides of a
man, continually educates him. This
being true, safety to the individual lies
in the help he gets toward the best
living, the truest education. A man
of high character is tower of strength
in O. community. Intercourse with
such man is liberal education to
youth. Weak men, vicious men, do
their part to educate others. No forces
are idle, no time lost the work is con-
tinuous and lasting. The safety of the
individual means the welfare of the
nation. The character the boy builds
to-day may mean the polity of the
state or nation in crisis years hence.

The History Or Carlsbad.

Among the curative waters of The
world those Of Carlsbad have been
longest and are best known. The in
teresting history Of the place is told BY
recent writer, as follows
The Oldest document on record about
Carlsbad Is dated "a. ID. 1895, and of
this we only know that it was entitled
King Johns Privilege or rather
aBreYe Testatum and Bill of Rights
about the Yhiergarten, sub ammo
1926. This shows conclusively that
Carlsbad first owed its prosperity
mainly to King John. Previously II
was called wary" q Bohemian word,
meaning warm bath. The name Of
Carlsbad was given to it Id honor Of
the Emperor Charles I V.. who first
brought it to q prominent position as.
d curative agent. Consequently, it is
only q myth that attributes the dis
covery Of Carlsbad springs to the said
Emperor, while out stag hunting.
The first written document about
the great curative power Of the mineral
water is q fine Latin oda: In Thorn
as Carroll w. by BohslaW, Of Lob
kowitz, which must have been written
not later than the year. 1900, as the
poet died ID that year.
Till the year 1870, Carlsbad was
only known as bathing place, when,
at the suggestion Of Dr.. Payer, people
also began to drink the waters. It was
also due to this physician that the first
medical work about Carlsbad was
printed, in the year 1922.
The first deieite examination Of the
physical and chemical properties of
the mineral waters Of Carlsbad was
made by Dr. David Becher in the year
1865, and it is but right To say that the
new medical history OF Carlsbad dates
its origin from the energy and zeal Of
this distinguished disciple of Hippoc-
rates. Since DR.. BechSr's examina-
ton NOV more than 10( years ago.,
the physical and chemical properties
of the mineral waters of Carlsbad
have not changed IN the least. \.
It is quite unnecessary to state how
Carlsbad gradually, during the six
centuries since ii. first became known,
attained its present appearance and
size; suffice it to say that, considering
it's drinking and bathing establish
ments, its dwelling houses, promenades
and places Of public amusement, it is
now undoubtedly one of the largest
and most comfortable watering -places
on the continent. The number Of
visitors in 1886 had risen to $4,000
persons, and the reputation of the
great curative powers of its waters has
become known throughout the whole
Of the civilized world. :5} ~. II )
